27th April thru 15th May! Join JOHN MUIR, portrayed by Lee Stetson, as he leisurely walks the JOHN MUIR WAY in Bonnie Scotland, and revisits his boyhood home in Dunbar!

The John Muir Way is a coast-to-coast route stretching 134 miles across Scotland’s heartland, from the Firth of Clyde at Helensburgh in the west through to John Muir’s birthplace on the North Sea at Dunbar.

Along the Way, Mr. Stetson, as Muir, will perform at a variety of venues, relating stories of his earliest years in Dunbar, his boyhood in the wilderness of Wisconsin, his truly astonishing adventures in the American West, and of his heroic battles to preserve wild lands.
